   A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
So, whats up with that?

	Who would you be if you stopped being all the things you are not?

	Greetings All! We'll be taking some time again for server maintenance and content integration on the 6th of September at 0430 UTC (0030 EDT) with a window of approximately 6 hours. During this time there will be a time stoppage across all of the Elgea server for the duration of the outage. Events such as movements, attacks, sieges, builds, etc. already taking place will proceed during the downtime. All pending events in the queue will be frozen in time when the maintenance begins at 0430 Server Time, and will be processed in the correct order when the servers are brought back online. Announcements will be made via Twitter and Facebook for updates on server status. Please note that with the down time there may be discrepancies in time stamps for events effected by maintenance as time stamps will match the process time. For clarity we have provided a maintenance start time table for multiple time zones: Weds 6th Sept at 0530 BST (eg 5:30AM in the UK) Weds 6th Sept at 0430 UTC (eg 4:30AM on the Game Server clock) Weds 6th Sept at 0030 EDT (eg 12:30AM on the Eastern Seaboard of the USA) Tues 5th Sept at 2330 CDT (eg 11:30PM in Central USA) Tues 5th Sept at 2130 PDT (eg 9:30PM Pacific Seaboard USA) We will be working diligently to bring the servers back up as quickly as possible and are excited to introduce new content to the players of Illyriad.
